  4. 2. Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles and Gadolinium Integration : Synthesis, Characterization and Biomedical Applications

    Author : Peter Eriksson; Kajsa Uvdal; Caroline Brommesson; Xuanjun Zhang; Zhang-Jun Hu; Duncan Sutherland; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : A challenging task, in the area of magnetic resonance imaging is to develop contrast enhancers with built-in antioxidant properties. Oxidative stress is considered to be involved in the onset and progression of several serious conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, and the possibility to use cerium-contained nanoparticles to modulate such inflammatory response has gained a lot of interest lately.

  6. 4. Development and results of the Swedish road deflection tester

    Author : Peter Andrén; Anders Eriksson; Anders Lenngren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : A project to construct a high-speed road deflection tester was initiated in the 1991. A mid-sized truck was used as a carrier for the first prototype. The results were promising and it was decided to build a full-size truck system. The new vehicle, based on a Scania R143 ML, was completed in 1997. READ MORE

  7. 5. Visual replenishment methods in the manufacturing industry and suggestion for a decision tool

    Author : Stefan Eriksson; Lars Bengtsson; Mauro Onori; Peter Gröndahl; Stig-Arne Mattsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; materials supply; replenishment methods; visual; selecting methods; decision tool;

    Abstract : In almost all supply chains, materials need to be stored or buffered, implying that manufacturing companies need effective replenishment methods. However, this is challenging, since companies must balance inventory costs and customer service in complex and different situations. Therefore, it is important to choose replenishment methods carefully. READ MORE
